This serif typeface shows crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced stroke modulation with a calligraphic stress. Uppercase forms are proportionally traditional with elegant, slightly flared terminals and clear triangular and wedge-like serif shapes. Lowercase letters have compact, well-formed bowls and open apertures, with a two-storey “g” and a two-storey “a” that maintain a steady, bookish rhythm. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with narrow joins, sharp serifs, and smooth curves that keep figures readable in text.
It is well suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. The sharp serifs and clear modulation can also support formal reports, institutional communication, and typographic systems that need a credible, established tone.
The overall tone is classic and literary, leaning formal without feeling overly ornate. Its contrast and finishing details convey refinement and authority, suitable for serious, editorial contexts rather than casual display.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with an emphasis on classical construction and refined finishing. Its letterforms prioritize readability and a familiar typographic cadence while using contrast and carefully shaped serifs to add elegance in print-oriented settings.
Spacing appears even in paragraph settings, and the forms maintain a consistent color across lines despite the high contrast. The italic is not shown, so the style reads as a straightforward roman with traditional proportions and restrained detail.
